If I know them Feb 17

A couple of weeks ago I spotted somebody I used to know and work with, so naturally I clicked.

Always Feb 17

I am interested in other translators. So I always click on the Featured Translator profile link. I am not jealous about other translators. It gives immense joy to read about other translators.

I don't see it Feb 17

My bookmark takes me to my own profile (for some reason) so I never see it.

I never see it because I go straight to the poll, then the forums.
I only knew I was the featured translator because Proz sent me an email to let me know.

Proz: if you look at how users access your website, you might find that very few people start at the home page.

No Feb 19

However, I'd be interested in knowing whether the "Featured Translators" received an increase in spam – or worse – scam offers.
